THW Abolish the Monarchy
By: Alif Azadi Taufik
In the world, there are many different systems that a government will use to rule and control their nation. Different nations will use different systems based on their national ideologies. Some countries will use a republic, federal, or monarchy system added with systems like democracy, communism, liberal, etc. Today, we would like to abolish a certain system and render it unusable for any country. That system would be the royal system of the Monarchy. This system is a system where a king, queen, and family would control and rule the land based on their own wills. There are constitutional Monarchies like in UK and Malaysia that create two powers of control, The Royal Family and The State Government. There are also absolute Monarchies like in Saudi Arabia and Brunei Darussalam that only have one absolute sole power, The Royal Family as The State Government. We would like to abolish this system because this system is unjust, unfair, and ineffective to rule a nation, because of its system of a singular power control. By that reason, we would destroy all monarchies, and change nations to other systems that are just, fair, and effective. The first reason to prove our claim is that Monarchies are undemocratic. This is caused by the events when the opinion of just one person (the King or Queen), in power purely by accident of birth, should not be able to intervene in political flows or call upon a government. For example, in the UK, the Monarch has the power to choose a Prime Minister, which should only be the people’s right to choose a leader, dismiss ministers, which should only be the Head of Government’s right, dissolve the parliament, which is only the Head of Parliament’s right, refuse to agree to legislation by parliament, which should only be the Head of Government’s right, pardon convict criminal, which disturbs fair Judicial Systems, declare state of emergency, which should only be the Head of
